Home Business Help: Delegation Tips
Filed in archive management by noel on September 24, 2006

And when things do really become a tad too offhand for comfort, that's usually the time that another helping hand should come to the rescue. Either you outsource your other tasks or hire someone to share your home office with a regular employee, it's important to be ready when it comes to delegating tasks as it can make or break your business.
Here are some tips on how to delegate your business well.
1. Instruct like a pro. Sending something like "write me an article on Internet marketing" surely doesn't cut it. E-mailing something like, "Hi Daene, Here are your projects today. Results will be useful at most on September 30, at around 10 a.m.. If you've got any questions, my phone and e-mail inbox will wait for them. Attached are some useful sources and other details of the project. Thanks!, is maybe a bit on the too-goodie-two-shoe of a project manager, but it sounds more appealing than the first instruction, right?
2. Hire the right person. Resume's and cover letters are not yet dead, but more extensive portfolios replete with references and probationary periods do sound healthy for me.
3. State your turnover expectations. Tip number 4 go complements this one.
4. Let the person share his or her ideas in improving results. Brainstorming do create storms for your business. PERIOD!
5. Always be updated with how things are going.Don't be a bossy monitor lizard though.
6. Feedback. Appreciation of one's work can avoid depreciation of results. Cheesy but true.
